We are looking forward to this year’s TCHS Horse Show Reimagined, which will be a part of a larger event in partnership with Michael Nyuis Foundation. We understand that some attendees are concerned about the changes and want to assure you that our commitment to providing an affordable experience for thoroughbreds on a bigger stage remains unwavering.
Some important notes to highlight:
- Thoroughbreds attending the show continue to benefit from reduced entry and stall costs.
- Variety of exclusive Thoroughbred classes to be offered on Saturday and Sunday, including a $1,500 Thoroughbred Hunter Derby.
- Prizes and ribbons to be given in all exclusive TB classes, similar to previous years.
- Exhibitors able to participate in a rated show.
- Expect the same competitive spirit and community atmosphere and the return of the popular decorating contest for horses, dogs, and barns.
While funds raised will benefit both CARMA and the Michael Nyuis Foundation, it is important to note that the Thoroughbred Classic Horse Show is not a fundraiser and has historically operated at CARMA’s expense. Funds raised in CARMA’s name during this event help offset these costs and allow us to bring you this event year after year as part of our mission to provide a platform to showcase the second careers of thoroughbreds beyond the track.
This collaboration provides a unique opportunity to reach new audiences while furthering our mission. We greatly appreciate your continued support and look forward to celebrating the incredible thoroughbreds who have found second careers through our programs this December.
